And its not just custom avatars, now i catn even get the critter avatars to work |

I think you disabled showing avatars in your user cp or something, accidentally. I can see you critter avatar just fine (vulture). |

If you want a custom ava, just import it in profile picture, and use that URL as your avatar. |

sigh... you need to pay attention to what kalar said, gitlich. The linking to posted pics doesn't work for the avatar, and neither does upload. Therefore, these commands were not implemented properly. The following info was discovered by Kalar, luckily, and I am very happy and excited to have my own, 99 x 72 Profile Specified Miles Prower picture in my avatar, instead of a boring old owl. • Firstly, go to User Cp • Next go to Edit Profile Picture • Use the upload with your pic, the pic should show up in the box • Right click the pic that shows up • Left click preferences • Copy the URL of the picture • Go to Edit Avatar • Scroll down to the bottom and paste the URL of the profile pic into the link box • Click Submit and don't worry if you didn't click the "Use Custom Avatar" circle. It auto-activates when you click Submit • When you return to the avatar screen, the Current Avatar box is blank saying "No Avatar Specified" - this is normal. Ignore it • Now check your posts and spread the info on. OMG Kalar thx thx thx for discovering! |

Hey man, thanks, I don't know if it worked or not, but it's time to find out. If a little Pac-man MC appears in my Icon, it worked, and I thank you. Yay! it worked! |
